Materials Data on Ag3Te2Au by Materials Project
Ag3AuTe2 is Magnesium tetraboride-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic I4_132 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Au1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ag1+ and two equivalent Te2- atoms. All Au–Ag bond lengths are 3.10 Å. Both Au–Te bond lengths are 2.66 Å. Ag1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Au1+ and four equivalent Te2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.97 Å) and two longer (3.01 Å) Ag–Te bond lengths. Te2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Au1+ and six equivalent Ag1+ atoms.
